Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Johannesburg, South Africa from November 21-23, 2025 to attend the 20th G20 Leaders' Summit. He will speak at all three summit sessions focusing on inclusive growth, resilience, and a just future. Modi will also hold bilateral meetings and join the India-Brazil-South Africa (IBSA) Leaders' Meeting.

The Indian government announced that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the 20th G20 Leaders' Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, from November 21 to 23, 2025. This event marks the fourth consecutive G20 Summit hosted by a Global South country, underscoring emerging economies' rising influence in global economic governance.

At the summit, PM Modi is slated to address all three major sessions:

Inclusive and sustainable economic growth focusing on trade, development financing, and overcoming debt challenges;
Building a resilient world with an emphasis on disaster risk reduction, climate change, just energy transitions, and food security;
Shaping a fair and just future tackling critical minerals, decent work, and the role of artificial intelligence.

On the sidelines, the Prime Minister will engage in bilateral talks with attending world leaders and participate in the India-Brazil-South Africa (IBSA) Leaders' Meeting hosted by South Africa.

The gathering takes place amid a notable absence of the United States, an indicator of shifting global dynamics. South Africa holds the G20 presidency for 2025, the first time the summit is hosted on African soil, demonstrating the forum's expanding geo-economic footprint.

This summit will further India's role in the international dialogue on inclusive growth, climate resilience, and technology-led equitable progress.

Key Highlights:

PM Modi to speak in all three G20 summit sessions.
Focus areas: inclusive growth, resilience, and a just future.
Bilateral meetings and IBSA Leaders' Meeting participation planned.
Fourth consecutive Global South-hosted G20 Summit.
South Africa's presidency highlights Africa's growing role in global economy.
